Grizedale Forest

Grizedale Forest Visitor Centre, Grizedale, Cumbria, LA22 0QJ

Grizedale Forest occupies a wonderfully dark location in the heart of the Lake District and is an excellent place to view the starry skies between large openings between the trees. Forestry England runs events here in collaboration with local astronomers.


Grizedale Forest has been recommended as a great place to stargaze by the local authority, national park, community organisation or property owner. May require payment for access or parking.
